WE ARE THE FLESH

TENEMOS LA CARNEMexico |
2016 | Emiliano Rocha Minter

Wandering through a post-apocalyptic city, a desperate brother and sister stumble upon the vast lair of a mysterious hermit who is part alchemist, part autocrat. In exchange for food and shelter, the siblings agree to do this man’s bidding—building a strange structure and engaging in depraved acts. Produced by Carlos Reygadas and endorsed by Mexico’s moviemaking heavyweights Alejandro González Iñárritu and Alfonso Cuarón, this visionary shocker is not for the squeamish. “An extreme Mexican fiesta of incest, cannibalism and explicit sex…Could squat quite comfortably alongside Hieronymus Bosch’s depiction of hell.” –Variety. No one under 18 admitted! Subtitles. DCP. 79 min.
